Stalked

Have you ever felt like you're being watched? Have you ever felt like somebody is behind you when you walk? When you're alone? When the lights are off? We all do, at some point. Unfortunately for some of us...this isn't just our imagination.

1. Stalker

For Ms. LeCompte

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Nick sat in bed. Alone in his dark bedroom, he knew that now was not the time to sleep. If he slept, it would be over. His life would end. Would he die? No...it would be much worse than that. He would have to face that thing that follows him...no...haunts him. As much as he hates to admit it, he is feeling very sleepy. His eyelids are growing heavier and heavier. He refuses to sleep. He stands up, almost loosing his balance, and begins to slowly walk towards his light switch, while his wooden floorboards squeak beneath his slow, heavy footsteps. Once he reaches the light switch, he rubs his bloodshut eyes and flips the small switch upwards. Once he does, he is nearly blinded by the bright lights above his head. Apparently, he is not the only one who is disturbed. Behind him, he hears a series of footsteps...as if something behind him was also disturbed by the light. With tired, red eyes, nick slowly turns his head to finally reveal the son of a bitch who was responsible for all of this. His Stalker.
